Chief Minister Revanth Reddy has announced several relief measures for families affected by the recent floods. The government will provide compensation of 5 lakhs to each affected family.
CM Revanth Reddy visited the flood-affected areas to assess the damage and offer support to the victims. During his visit, he mentioned that three villages in the Maripeda mandal will be relocated to safer areas. A new colony will be established for the residents who are being displaced.
The Chief Minister also stressed the importance of the central government declaring the floods a national disaster as soon as possible. He raised concerns about the potential spread of diseases like cholera and malaria due to the current situation. To prevent this, medical teams have been instructed to stay alert, and additional water tankers will be sent to help with mud removal.
Reddy further called for full coordination among government agencies to ensure effective relief efforts. He suggested that assistance from police and officials from other districts should be sought if needed.
